Community and support

Zaviya is free and developed in the open. Questions, bug reports, test results and donations all go to the channels below.

Get help

Need Where
Install help and general questions Discord
Bug reports and device requests GitHub issues
Self-service answers Troubleshooting, Known issues and the FAQ

Include the device model and the debug logs in a bug report.

Test and report

Community testing decides which devices are marked as tested. A report is useful even when everything works. Running Zaviya on a device and reporting the result helps other owners, and a star on the GitHub repository helps the project reach them.

Send a device

A new handheld is added only when someone can test it. A spare device, supported or not, is the fastest way to get it supported. Contact the project on Discord or GitHub.

Support development

Donations fund test hardware.
